Debra Davis and her great-grandbabies knew where to go.
"It's hot, but we're enjoying laying in the pool," said Davis, who floated in the pool in the front yard of her home in the 700 block of Daverton Road in ÂÒÂ×ÄÚÉä.
Beside her, great-grandchildren Maya and Kia Lewis, 3 and 2, respectfully, splashed, jumped and laughed.
